Americans' Confidence in Future
Of Iraq at New Low, Poll Shows

Americans' confidence that "Iraq will be successful in developing a democratic and reasonably stable government" has declined sharply since August, a new Harris Interactive poll shows.

Three months ago, 40% of U.S. adults were confident that Iraq would be able to develop a stable democratic government, but now only 32% say they are confident that this will happen, according to the recent telephone poll of 1,011 adults.
